This is useful for development where overwriting files out side
the configured prefix will affect the host as well as stateless
systems such as NixOS that don't let packages install to /etc but handle
configuration on their own.

tested with:
$ mkdir inst build && cd build
$ meson \
-Dcreate-log-dirs=false \
-Dsysvrcnd-path=$(realpath ../inst)/etc/rc.d \
-Dsysvinit-path=$(realpath ../inst)/etc/init.d \
-Drootprefix=$(realpath ../inst) \
-Dinstall-sysconfdir=false \
--prefix=$(realpath ../inst) ..
$ ninja install
Let systemd load a set of pre-compiled AppArmor profile files from a policy
cache at /etc/apparmor/earlypolicy. Maintenance of that policy cache must be
done outside of systemd.
After successfully loading the profiles systemd will attempt to change to a
profile named systemd.
If systemd is already confined in a profile, it will not load any profile files
and will not attempt to change it's profile.
If anything goes wrong, systemd will only log failures. It will not fail to
start.
This reverts commit 07125d24ee.
In contrast to what is claimed in #13396 dbus-broker apparently does
care for the service file to be around, and otherwise will claim
"Service Not Activatable" in the time between systemd starting up the
broker and connecting to it, which the stub service file is supposed to
make go away.
Reverting this makes the integration test suite pass again on host with
dbus-broker (i.e. current Fedora desktop).
Tested with dbus-broker-21-6.fc31.x86_64.
This fixes the following problem:
> At the very end of the boot, just after the first user logs in
> (usually using sddm / X) I get the following messages in my logs:
> Nov 18 07:02:33 samd dbus-daemon[2879]: [session uid=1000 pid=2877] Activated service 'org.freedesktop.systemd1' failed: Process org.freedesktop.systemd1 exited with status 1
> Nov 18 07:02:33 samd dbus-daemon[2879]: [session uid=1000 pid=2877] Activated service 'org.freedesktop.systemd1' failed: Process org.freedesktop.systemd1 exited with status 1
These messages are caused by the "stub" service files that systemd
installs. It installed them because early versions of systemd activation
required them to exist.
Since dbus 1.11.0, a dbus-daemon that is run with --systemd-activation
automatically assumes that o.fd.systemd1 is an activatable
service. As a result, with a new enough dbus version,
/usr/share/dbus-1/services/org.freedesktop.systemd1.service and
/usr/share/dbus-1/system-services/org.freedesktop.systemd1.service should
become unnecessary, and they can be removed.
dbus 1.11.0 was released 2015-12-02.
Bug-Debian: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=914015
We explicitly create /etc/systemd/user and other parts of the basic directory
tree. I think we should create /etc/systemd/system too. (The alternative would
be to not create those other directories too, but I think it's nice to have
the basic directory structure in place after installation.)
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1737362
This avoids double compilation. Those files are tiny, so it doesn't save time,
but we avoid repeated warnings and errors, and it's generally cleaner to it
this way.
The number of commands in 'ninja -C build clean && ninja -C build' drops from
1462 to 1455 for me.
Let's move the shutdown binary into its own subdirectory in
src/shutdown, after all it is relatively isolated from the normal PID 1
sources, being a different binary and all.
Unfortunately it's not possible to move some of the code, since it is
shared with PID 1, that I wished we could move, but I still think it's
worth it.
The idea was that those vars could be configured to 'no' to not install the .pc
files, or they could be set to '', and then they would be built but not
installed. This was inherited from the autoconf build system. This couldn't
work because '' is replaced by the default value. Also, having this level of
control doesn't seem necessary, since creating those files is very
quick. Skipping with 'no' was implemented only for systemd.pc and not the other
.pc files. Let's simplify things and skip installation if the target dir
is configured as 'no' for all .pc files.
Cgroup v2 provides the eBPF-based device controller, which isn't currently
supported by systemd. This commit aims to provide such support.
There are no user-visible changes, just the device policy and whitelist
start working if cgroup v2 is used.
(or in terms of the names of the actual files on disk, do not link
libsystemd-shared-238.a into libcore.a).
libsystemd_static is linked into libsystemd_shared, which in turn means that
anything that links to libcore and libsystemd_shared will get libsystemd_static
twice:
$ cc -o systemd 'systemd@exe/src_core_main.c.o' -Wl,--no-undefined -Wl,--as-needed -Wl,-z,relro -Wl,-z,now -pie -DVALGRIND -Wl,--start-group src/core/libcore.a src/shared/libsystemd-shared-238.a src/shared/libsystemd-shared-238.so -pthread -lrt -lseccomp -lselinux -lmount -lblkid -Wl,--end-group -lseccomp -lpam -L/lib64 -laudit -lkmod -lmount -lrt -lcap -lacl -lcryptsetup -lgcrypt -lip4tc -lip6tc -lseccomp -lselinux -lidn -llzma -llz4 -lblkid '-Wl,-rpath,$ORIGIN/src/shared' -Wl,-rpath-link,/home/zbyszek/src/systemd/build/src/shared
This propagation of the dependency seems correct (in the sense that meson is
doing the expected thing based on the given configuration). Linking was done
this way in the original meson conversion. I was probably trying to get
everything to compile and link, I'm not sure why this particular choice was
made. In the meantime, meson has gotten better at propagating dependencies, so
it's possible that this had slightly different effect in the original
conversion, but I did not verify this. Either way, I think we should drop this.
With the patch:
$ cc -o systemd 'systemd@exe/src_core_main.c.o' -Wl,--no-undefined -Wl,--as-needed -Wl,-z,relro -Wl,-z,now -pie -DVALGRIND -Wl,--start-group src/core/libcore.a src/shared/libsystemd-shared-238.so -pthread -lrt -lseccomp -lselinux -lmount -Wl,--end-group -lblkid -lrt -lseccomp -lpam -L/lib64 -laudit -lkmod -lselinux -lmount '-Wl,-rpath,$ORIGIN/src/shared' -Wl,-rpath-link,/home/zbyszek/src/systemd/build/src/shared
This is more correct because we're not linking the same code twice.
With the patch, libystemd_static is used in exactly four places:
- src/shared/libsystemd-shared-238.so
- src/udev/libudev.so.1.6.10
- pam_systemd.so
- test-bus-error
(compared to a bunch more executables before, including systemd,
systemd-analyze, test-hostname, test-ns, etc.)
Size savings are also noticable:
$ size /var/tmp/inst?/usr/lib/systemd/libsystemd-shared-238.so

2397826 578488 15920 2992234 2da86a /var/tmp/inst1/usr/lib/systemd/libsystemd-shared-238.so

Files which are installed as-is (any .service and other unit files, .conf
files, .policy files, etc), are left as is. My assumption is that SPDX
identifiers are not yet that well known, so it's better to retain the
extended header to avoid any doubt.
I also kept any copyright lines. We can probably remove them, but it'd nice to
obtain explicit acks from all involved authors before doing that.
So far I avoided adding license headers to meson files, but they are pretty
big and important and should carry license headers like everything else.
I added my own copyright, even though other people modified those files too.
But this is mostly symbolic, so I hope that's OK.
This didn't work during the initial conversion to meson, but should now.
A sufficiently new polkit is also required, for the .its rules files.
Note that https://github.com/mesonbuild/meson/blob/master/docs/markdown/i18n-module.md
says that 'install' argument was added in meson 0.43.0. If this is accurate,
warnigs might be generated with older mesons. Fedora has 0.43.0 across the
board, but other distros probably don't, but I guess that a warning is
prefereable to having to update do latest meson.
The advantages are:
- one less dependency (intltool)
- using the generic implementation instead of our open-coded calls
- we don't need to use the fake "_" prefixes in XML
Replaces #1609, fixes#7300.
This is particularly useful when used in conjunction with DynamicUser=1,
where the UID might change for every invocation, but is useful in other
cases too, for example, when these directories are shared between
systems where the UID assignments differ slightly.
Add a config directive parser that takes multiple space separated IPv4
or IPv6 addresses with optional netmasks in CIDR notation rvalue and
puts a parsed version of it to linked list of IPAddressAccessItem objects.
The code actually using this will be added later.
Since busname units are only useful with kdbus, they weren't actively
used. This was dead code, only compile-tested. If busname units are
ever added back, it'll be cleaner to start from scratch (possibly reverting
parts of this patch).
The indentation for emacs'es meson-mode is added .dir-locals.
All files are reindented automatically, using the lasest meson-mode from git.
Indentation should now be fairly consistent.
This is the equivalent of $(INSTALL_DIRS) and install-touch-usr-hook.
I did not bother to create the directories into which we install files,
since they will be created anyway.
v2:
- remove bashism
This is what autoconf-based build does, and it makes test-bus-error and
test-engine able to access the bus error mapping table. OTOH, this is a heavy
price to pay: it would be excellent to link libcore.a to libsystemd-shared-NNN.so.
Otherwise we duplicate the same code in 'systemd' and 'libsystemd-shared-NNN.so'.
-rwxrwxr-x. 1 4075544 Apr 6 20:30 systemd* <-- libcore linked against libsystemd-shared.so
-rwxrwxr-x. 1 5596504 Apr 9 14:07 systemd* <-- libcore linked against libsystemd-shared.a
v2:
- update for 6b5cf3ea62
It's crucial that we can build systemd using VS2010!
... er, wait, no, that's not the official reason. We need to shed old systems
by requring python 3! Oh, no, it's something else. Maybe we need to throw out
345 years of knowlege accumulated in autotools? Whatever, this new thing is
cool and shiny, let's use it.
This is not complete, I'm throwing it out here for your amusement and critique.
- rules for sd-boot are missing. Those might be quite complicated.
- rules for tests are missing too. Those are probably quite simple and
repetitive, but there's lots of them.
- it's likely that I didn't get all the conditions right, I only tested "full"
compilation where most deps are provided and nothing is disabled.
- busname.target and all .busname units are skipped on purpose.
Otherwise, installation into $DESTDIR has the same list of files and the
autoconf install, except for .la files.
It'd be great if people had a careful look at all the library linking options.
I added stuff until things compiled, and in the end there's much less linking
then in the old system. But it seems that there's still a lot of unnecessary
deps.
meson has a `shared_module` statement, which sounds like something appropriate
for our nss and pam modules. Unfortunately, I couldn't get it to work. For the
nss modules, we need an .so version of '2', but `shared_module` disallows the
version argument. For the pam module, it also didn't work, I forgot the reason.
The handling of .m4 and .in and .m4.in files is rather awkward. It's likely
that this could be simplified. If make support is ever dropped, I think it'd
make sense to switch to a different templating system so that two different
languages and not required, which would make everything simpler yet.
v2:
- use get_pkgconfig_variable
- use sh not bash
- use add_project_arguments
v3:
- drop required:true and fix progs/prog typo
v4:
- use find_library('bz2')
- add TTY_GID definition
- define __SANE_USERSPACE_TYPES__
- use join_paths(prefix, ...) is used on all paths to make them all absolute
v5:
- replace all declare_dependency's with []
- add more conf.get guards around optional components
v6:
- drop -pipe, -Wall which are the default in meson
- use compiler.has_function() and compiler.has_header_symbol instead of the
hand-rolled checks.
- fix duplication in 'liblibsystemd' library name
- use the right .sym file for pam_systemd
- rename 'compiler' to 'cc': shorter, and more idiomatic.
v7:
- use ENABLE_ENVIRONMENT_D not HAVE_ENVIRONMENT_D
- rename prefix to prefixdir, rootprefix to rootprefixdir
("prefix" is too common of a name and too easy to overwrite by mistake)
- wrap more stuff with conf.get('ENABLE...') == 1
- use rootprefix=='/' and rootbindir as install_dir, to fix paths under
split-usr==true.
v8:
- use .split() also for src/coredump. Now everything is consistent ;)
- add rootlibdir option and use it on the libraries that require it
v9:
- indentation
v10:
- fix check for qrencode and libaudit
v11:
- unify handling of executable paths, provide options for all progs
This makes the meson build behave slightly differently than the
autoconf-based one, because we always first try to find the executable in the
filesystem, and fall back to the default. I think different handling of
loadkeys, setfont, and telinit was just a historical accident.
In addition to checking in $PATH, also check /usr/sbin/, /sbin for programs.
In Fedora $PATH includes /usr/sbin, (and /sbin is is a symlink to /usr/sbin),
but in Debian, those directories are not included in the path.
C.f. https://github.com/mesonbuild/meson/issues/1576.
- call all the options 'xxx-path' for clarity.
- sort man/rules/meson.build properly so it's stable
